A night of vintage glamour is set to return to Dundee this weekend as Gatsby 2026 arrives at CANVAS on Sunday evening, bringing with it live music, dancing and a celebration of 1920s style.


Running from 7pm, the event will feature a live performance inspired by the roaring twenties, creating an immersive atmosphere that blends music, movement and social experience. A key highlight of the evening will see a collaboration with Dundee University Swing Dance Society, who will host a dance tutorial before the main event begins.


The addition of the swing dance session offers something different for attendees, giving both beginners and those more experienced the chance to take part and learn new steps ahead of the live performance. It adds an interactive element to the night, helping to create a welcoming and inclusive environment.


Gatsby 2026 continues to build on Dundee’s growing events scene, offering something a little different in the city. Tickets are available now, with the event expected to attract those looking for a lively and memorable night out.
